Proverbs 4:10

4:10 Listen, my child, and accept my words,

so that the years of your life will be many.


tn Heb “my son” (likewise in v. 20).

tn The vav prefixed to the imperfect verb follows an imperative; this volitive sequence depicts purpose/result.

tn Heb “and the years of life will be many for you.”
